Bridgerland Technical College

StrategicPlan

Bridgerland Technical College is one of eight colleges that comprise the Utah System of Technical Colleges (USTC). Bridgerland Technical College provides industry driven, career education in an open-entry/open-exit, individualized, competency-based format. This unique format allows each student to master required skills at his or her personal learning pace.

Bridgerland Technical College undergoes an annual strategic planning process in compliance with the Council on Occupational Education (COE) accreditation standards. In this 2017-2022 strategic planning cycle, a new element of aligning with the State of Utah’s nine educational anchors was introduced. Bridgerland Technical College's eight core objectives were developed to align directly with the State of Utah anchors.

Bridgerland Technical College utilized a new team approach in developing the strategies in each of the eight objectives. Teams comprised of faculty, staff, students and administrative members who worked diligently to identify both opportunities and challenges facing Bridgerland Technical College in the next five years. This resulted in a common philosophy, a unified sense of direction, priorities for change, and a blueprint for action. While campus objectives and strategies are always subject to change in order to address opportunities and challenges, the strategic planning process provides clear direction for the future of this institution.

This Strategic Plan was compiled from strategic planning team meetings and administrative vision; presented to faculty, staff, and Administration; reviewed for priorities, timelines, and costs; and were presented to the Bridgerland Technical College Board of Directors for final adoption.
